BACKGROUND Technical Field

The disclosure relates to transmission methods and devices in wireless communication systems, and in particular to a communication method and device on sidelink in wireless communication.

Related Art

Application scenarios of future wireless communication systems are becoming increasingly diversified, and different application scenarios have different performance requirements on systems. In order to meet different performance requirements of various application scenarios, the 3^(rd) Generation Partner Project (3GPP) Radio Access Network (RAN) #72 plenary session decided to conduct the study of New Radio (NR) (or 5G). The Work Item (WI) of NR was approved at the 3GPP RAN #75 session to standardize the NR.

In view of Vehicle-to-Everything (V2X) services developing rapidly, 3GPP has also started the initiation of standards formulation and researches under NR framework. At present, 3GPP has accomplished the work of formulation of requirements orienting 5G V2X services and has written it into standards TS22.886. 3GPP defines four use case groups for 5G V2X services, including Vehicles Platnooning, Extended Sensors, Advanced Driving and Remote Driving. The Study Item (SI) of technical research of NR V2X was approved at the 3GPP RAN #80 session.

SUMMARY

In order to meet requirements of new services, compared with LTE V2X systems, NR V2X services have higher throughput, higher reliability, lower latency, further transmission distance, more accurate positioning, higher variability in packet size and transmission periodicity, and key technical features coexisting with current 3GPP technologies and non-3GPP technologies more efficiently. The work mode of the present LTE V2X systems is limited to broadcast transmission only. According to common knowledges reached at the 3GPP RAN #80 plenary session, NR V2X will study a technical scheme supporting multiple work modes of unicast, groupcast and broadcast.

In the work mode of the present LTE Device to Device (D2D)/V2X, a radio signal transmitted through sidelink by a User Equipment (UE) is broadcast, and the radio signal is not directed to a specific UE. In order not to generate interferences to the cellular uplink transmission over a Uu interface, a transmitting power on sidelink is determined according to a path loss between Uu interfaces of the transmitting terminal and the base station. However, when two terminals performing Device to Device (D2D) or V2X communication are close in distance, the above transmitting power determined based on the Uu interface path loss will lead to waste of terminal power. Meanwhile, when there are multiple beams between the base station and the terminal, the existing method to determine a transmitting power needs to be redesigned.

In view of the above problems, the disclosure provides a solution to support unicast transmission. It should be noted that the embodiments of the UE of the disclosure and the characteristics in the embodiments may be applied to the base station if no conflict is incurred, and vice versa. The embodiments of the disclosure and the characteristics in the embodiments may be mutually combined arbitrarily if no conflict is incurred. Further, although the disclosure is initially designed for unicast based transmission mechanisms, the disclosure is also applicable to broadcast and groupcast transmissions. Furthermore, although the disclosure is initially designed for single-carrier communications, the disclosure is also applicable to multi-carrier communications.

The disclosure provides a method in a first node for wireless communication, wherein the method includes:

receiving a first reference signal and a second reference signal;

determining a first power within a range not greater than a first maximum power; and

transmitting a first radio signal with the first power.

Herein, the first maximum power is related to a measurement result against the first reference signal and is not related to a measurement result against the second reference signal; and the first power is related to the measurement result against the second reference signal.

In one embodiment, the above method has another following benefit: the first maximum power is only used as an upper limit of the first power, and the determination of the first power actually refers to the measurement result against the second reference signal, that is to say, the actual transmitting power on the PC-5 interface refers to a path loss measured on the PC-5 interface, which ensures that the selected transmitting power on the PC-5 interface can guarantee the correct reception of radio signals on the PC-5 interface.

Herein, the second information is used for indicating a first power difference, and the first power difference is equal to a difference between the first maximum power and the first power; a receiver of the second information includes the transmitter of the first reference signal; and the second information is transmitted through an air interface.

According to one aspect of the disclosure, the above method includes:

receiving (M1-1) second-type radio signal(s) among M1 second-type radio signals.

FIG. 3 is a diagram illustrating an embodiment of a radio protocol architecture of a user plane and a control plane. In FIG. 3, the radio protocol architecture of a UE and a base station (gNB or eNB) is represented by three layers, which are a Layer 1, a Layer 2 and a Layer 3 respectively. The Layer 1 (L1 layer) is the lowest layer and implements various PHY (physical layer) signal processing functions. The L1 layer will be referred to herein as the PHY 301. The Layer 2 (L2 layer) 305 is above the PHY 301, and is responsible for the link between the UE and the gNB over the PHY 301. In the user plane, the L2 layer 305 includes a Medium Access Control (MAC) sublayer 302, a Radio Link Control (RLC) sublayer 303, and a Packet Data Convergence Protocol (PDCP) sublayer 304, which are terminated at the gNB on the network side. Although not shown, the UE may include several higher layers above the L2 layer 305, including a network layer (i.e. IP layer) terminated at the P-GW on the network side and an application layer terminated at the other end (i.e. a peer UE, a server, etc.) of the connection. The PDCP sublayer 304 provides multiplexing between different radio bearers and logical channels. The PDCP sublayer 304 also provides header compression for higher-layer packets so as to reduce radio transmission overheads. The PDCP sublayer 304 provides security by encrypting packets and provides support for UE handover between gNBs. The RLC sublayer 303 provides segmentation and reassembling of higher-layer packets, retransmission of lost packets, and reordering of lost packets to as to compensate for out-of-order reception due to HARQ.

In the control plane, the radio protocol architecture of the UE and the gNB is almost the same as the radio protocol architecture in the user plane on the PHY 301 and the L2 layer 305, with the exception that there is no header compression function for the control plane. The control plane also includes a Radio Resource Control (RRC) sublayer 306 in the layer 3 (L3).

The first communication equipment 450 includes a controller/processor 459, a memory 460, a data source 467, a transmitting processor 468, a receiving processor 456, a multi-antenna transmitting processor 457, a multi-antenna receiving processor 458, a transmitter/receiver 454 and an antenna 452.

The second communication equipment 410 includes a controller/processor 475, a memory 476, a receiving processor 470, a transmitting processor 416, a multi-antenna receiving processor 472, a multi-antenna transmitting processor 471, a transmitter/receiver 418 and an antenna 420.

In a transmission from the second communication equipment 410 to the first communication equipment 450, at the second communication equipment 410, a higher-layer packet from a core network is provided to the controller/processor 475. The controller/processor 475 provides functions of Layer 2. In the transmission from the second communication equipment 410 to the first communication equipment 450, the controller/processor 475 provides header compression, encryption, packet segmentation and reordering, multiplexing between a logical channel and a transport channel, and a radio resource allocation for the first communication equipment 450 based on various priority metrics. The controller/processor 475 is also in charge of retransmission of lost packets, and signalings to the first communication equipment 450. The transmitting processor 416 and the multi-antenna transmitting processor 471 perform various signal processing functions used for Layer 1 (that is, PHY). The transmitting processor 416 performs encoding and interleaving so as to ensure FEC (Forward Error Correction) at the first communication equipment 450 and mappings to signal clusters corresponding to different modulation schemes (i.e., BPSK, QPSK, M-PSK M-QAM, etc.). The multi-antenna transmitting processor 471 processes the encoded and modulated symbols with digital spatial precoding (including precoding based on codebook and precoding based on non-codebook) and beamforming to generate one or more spatial streams. The transmitting processor 416 subsequently maps each spatial stream into a subcarrier to be multiplexed with a reference signal (i.e., pilot) in time domain and/or frequency domain, and then processes it with Inverse Fast Fourier Transform (IFFT) to generate a physical channel carrying time-domain multicarrier symbol streams. Then, the multi-antenna transmitting processor 471 processes the time-domain multicarrier symbol streams with transmitting analog precoding/beamforming. Each transmitter 418 converts a baseband multicarrier symbol stream provided by the multi-antenna transmitting processor 471 into a radio frequency stream and then provides it to different antennas 420.

In a transmission from the second communication equipment 410 to the first communication equipment 450, at the first communication equipment 450, each receiver 454 receives a signal via the corresponding antenna 452. Each receiver 454 recovers the information modulated to the RF carrier and converts the radio frequency stream into a baseband multicarrier symbol stream to provide to the receiving processor 456. The receiving processor 456 and the multi-antenna receiving processor 458 perform various signal processing functions of Layer 1. The multi-antenna receiving processor 458 processes the baseband multicarrier symbol stream coming from the receiver 454 with receiving analog precoding/beamforming. The receiving processor 458 converts the baseband multicarrier symbol stream subjected to the receiving analog precoding/beamforming operation from time domain into frequency domain using FFT (Fast Fourier Transform). In frequency domain, a physical layer data signal and a reference signal are demultiplexed by the receiving processor 456, wherein the reference signal is used for channel estimation, and the data signal is subjected to multi-antenna detection in the multi-antenna receiving processor 458 to recover any spatial stream targeting the UE 450. Symbols on each spatial stream are demodulated and recovered in the receiving processor 456 to generate a soft decision. Then, the receiving processor 456 decodes and de-interleaves the soft decision to recover the higher-layer data and control signal on the physical channel transmitted by the second communication equipment 410. Next, the higher-layer data and control signal are provided to the controller/processor 459. The controller/processor 459 performs functions of Layer 2. The controller/processor 459 may be connected to the memory 460 that stores program codes and data. The memory 460 may be called a computer readable media. In the transmission from the second communication equipment 410 to the first communication equipment 450, the controller/processor 459 provides multiplexing between the transport channel and the logical channel, packet reassembling, decryption, header decompression, and control signal processing so as to recover the higher-layer packet coming from the core network. The higher-layer packet is then provided to all protocol layers above Layer 2, or various control signals can be provided to Layer 3 for processing.

In a transmission from the first communication equipment 450 to the second communication equipment 410, at the first communication equipment 450, the data source 467 provides a higher-layer packet to the controller/processor 459. The data source 467 illustrates all protocol layers above the L2 layer. Similar as the transmitting function of the second communication equipment 410 described in the transmission from the second communication equipment 410 to the first communication equipment 450, the controller/processor 459 provides header compression, encryption, packet segmentation and reordering, and multiplexing between a logical channel and a transport channel based on radio resource allocation so as to provide the functions of L2 layer used for the control plane and user plane. The controller/processor 459 is also in charge of retransmission of lost packets, and signalings to the second communication equipment 410. The transmitting processor 468 conducts modulation mapping and channel encoding processing; the multi-antenna transmitting processor 457 performs digital multi-antenna spatial precoding (including precoding based on codebook and precoding based on non-codebook) and beaming processing; and subsequently, the transmitting processor 468 modulates the generated spatial streams into a multicarrier/single-carrier symbol stream, which is subjected to an analog precoding/beamforming operation in the multi-antenna transmitting processor 457 and then is provided to different antennas 452 via the transmitter 454. Each transmitter 452 first converts the baseband symbol stream provided by the multi-antenna transmitting processor 457 into a radio frequency symbol stream and then provides the radio frequency symbol stream to the antenna 452.

In a transmission from the first communication equipment 450 to the second communication equipment 410, the function of the second communication equipment 410 is similar as the receiving function of the first communication equipment 450 described in the transmission from second communication equipment 410 to the first communication equipment 450. Each receiver 418 receives a radio frequency signal via the corresponding antenna 420, converts the received radio frequency signal into a baseband signal, and provides the baseband signal to the multi-antenna receiving processor 472 and the receiving processor 470. The receiving processor 470 and the multi-antenna receiving processor 472 together provide functions of Layer 1. The controller/processor 475 provides functions of Layer 2. The controller/processor 475 may be connected to the memory 476 that stores program codes and data. The memory 476 may be called a computer readable media. In the transmission from the first communication equipment 450 to the second communication equipment 410, the controller/processor 475 provides de-multiplexing between the transport channel and the logical channel, packet reassembling, decryption, header decompression, and control signal processing so as to recover higher-layer packets coming from the UE 450.
